A variety of prominent companies are set to trade ex-dividend starting the week of April 28, 2025. This includes major players such as HCL Technologies, Tanla Platforms, 360 ONE WAM, Vesuvius India, ABB India, and ACME Solar Holdings. According to the Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE), several of these firms have also revealed plans for additional corporate activities, notably issuing bonus shares.
Understanding Ex-Dividend Dates
The ex-dividend date marks a crucial moment in the stock market. On this date, the share price adjusts to account for the upcoming dividend payment. If you purchase shares on or after the ex-dividend date, you will not receive the next dividend. Only shareholders recorded by the end of the record date are eligible for the distribution.

-
